I did a post on this on my blog! People take their piggy banks and penny jars for granted but the money can add up. I always say that no one will stop by the bank to drop off their change so drop it off at the piggy bank at home.

Each day we add our change to a tub and at the end of the month we deposit into our savings.

DH and I save our change in a cookie jar and at the end of every month we roll what we can and take it to the bank. Then, we transfer it to our savings account. That way it isn’t sitting around TOO long doing nothing. Most months we’ve had between $35 and $50 dollars!

Hey Kacie,

Do you have Commerce Banks out there. I don’t know if they are all over the state or if they stop somewhere between us (Central PA). Anyway, for the next time, if you have one, you can take your change there to use their machine. You don’t have to have an account with them and there is no fee. Just dump your change in there and then take the print out to the counter. They’ll give you the cash for it! :) I did this for my husband’s birthday our first year married. I’d been hording and hiding any change I could find in a ziplock in my drawer. Then for his birthday I cashed it in and had $50 to spend on him. Since I stay at home, it was great to be able to spend “my” money on him instead of “his” or “ours”. :)

We spend very little cash too, but when we do, the coins end up in the car (for the occasional metered parking) or in a container on my husband’s desk. A couple of times a year, I make as many rolls as I can and take them to the bank to deposit. It’s never much – maybe $20+ if I have two rolls of quarters, but it always feels good because it’s so completely painless.

I would never dream of paying someone to roll my coins for me! It’s so easy and goes pretty quickly if you’re watching tv.
